Durban in Südafrika is a destination that Honeymoon plans for couples who focus on togetherness, calm and privacy. Behind it stands Honeymoon, a Swiss travel agency with video consultation that puts honeymoons together individually. With the planner, you state your wishes for two, and the discussion of the trip follows in the video call.

Why this trip
A warm Indian Ocean, surfers in the morning and Zulu country in the hinterland: Durban on the east coast of South Africa suits couples who want to combine beach and safari. The city is a coastal resort and a hub at the same time. The uShaka Marine World shows marine worlds, and the Durban Botanic Gardens offers shade and blossoms for a quiet afternoon. The Moses Mabhida Stadium can be climbed by cable car, and from the top you see the city and coast.
At the PheZulu Safari Park you experience culture and animals in the surroundings. Zulumoon Gondolas Boat Rides suit an evening on the water, and hotels such as the Beverly Hills Hotel or the Endless Horizons Boutique Hotel lie by the sea. From May to September the climate is dry and mild, the best time for safari. Hluhluwe, Sabi Sand, Addo and Johannesburg are neighbouring destinations.
Durban at the start and the wilderness as the second part make a trip that offers first calm by the sea, then animals in the bush. On a video call, Honeymoon will draw up such a route with you, in which the travel times stay short.
